Is radiofrequency catheter ablation effective in adult patients with PJRT?
Radiofrequency catheter ablation is highly effective and should be considered the first-choice treatment for adults with PJRT.
Answers are grounded in this paper and cite their sources.
RFA may be effective for adult PJRT; leaves open need for prospective trials before practice change.
PJRT in adults is often paroxysmal (53%), and the retrograde slowly conducting, decremental AP is not infrequently in a non-posteroseptal location. Radiofrequency catheter ablation is highly effective and should be considered as the treatment of first choice in adult patients with PJRT.
